Both brothers are controlled simultaneously, but they have separate items, trinkets, and health bars with Jacob having more health and Esau having more damage. They are named after the twin sons of Isaac. Anti-Frustration Features: Since they automatically use any cards and pills they pick up, picking up a red card would run the risk of that card being Suicide King.Jacob looks like normal person while Esau has dark red skin, but both have the same hair style. Thankfully, the developers realized this and made it so that Suicide King never spawns in a Jacob & Esau run. Damn You, Muscle Memory!: The twins automatically use any pick-ups as Esau's "use item" button is "Q", the standard use pick-up item button.Ĭan't Live Without You: If one of the brothers dies, both die, so neglecting one of them to make the other stronger is out of the question.Born Unlucky: Esau starts with negative luck.Amazing Technicolor Population: Esau is a dark red because the Biblical Esau was described as "red all over" when he was born.The Dividual: Both Jacob and Esau are controlled by the player and if one dies both die.Mechanically Unusual Class: The player is in control of two characters at once, and needs to manage their health and who gets what items.

At first it's essentially like having double firepower, but it starts to get funky once the brothers have different movement speeds, tear effects, or even things like flight. They also have a unique UI to accommodate them, with Esau's health, active item, and trinket all in the bottom corner that normally shows your pill/card/rune. Both brothers are controlled by one player, and move and shoot at the same time. You can however control Jacob independently by holding the item swap button, which is useful for positioning them for grabbing items or placing bombs. Tears of Blood: Esau has these standard.Humanoid Blurb/Tidal Gaper/Strifer/Rotten Gaper/Twitchy Composite Character: Twitchy alternates between acting like a Gaper and acting like a Trite.Inescapable Ambush: Tidal Gapers start out submerged.
